AI Summary

This bill amends Section 21 of Chapter 25 of the General Laws to expand the definition of energy efficiency programs that utility companies must offer. The changes include allowing energy storage and active demand management technologies, strategic electrification measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and programs that result in customers switching to renewable or other clean energy sources. The bill also modifies the cost-effectiveness review process for energy efficiency programs, requiring that programs be aggregated by sector and that any sector with a benefit-cost ratio greater than 1.0 be considered cost-effective.
